Computed tomography of intracranial gangliogliomas

Computed tomography of intracranial gangliogliomas

H L Dorne et al. AJNR Am J Neuroradiol. 1986 Mar-Apr.

Abstract

Thirteen patients with pathologically proven gangliogliomas were studied radiographically. The computed tomographic (CT) features of these 13 lesions and the other 35 cases in the literature were analyzed. Although the CT appearance of gangliogliomas was varied, certain characteristics were noted. The most common location was in the cerebral hemispheres, most often the temporal lobe. At least part of the tumor was low density in 71% of the unenhanced CT examinations. There were focal calcifications in 35% and enhancement with contrast material in 50%.
